yeah....Things will only get better

Ok I confess.. I'm a fucking WUSS.

I never like receiving SMSes from overseas, it only spells trouble. But this is one that I welcome.

I got to know J and D through work. They are engineers from this MNC in USA. Shan't reveal which state so as to protect the innocent. =) They are from different departments but were in the same dept. They were a couple. I mean,"were".

When I first got to know them, I didn't know they were divorced. It was a short marriage, less than 2 years. Well, this is probably considered a "long time" in USA? I mean you see more cases of divorce over there? Anyway, that's my personal opinion la not trying to sterotype.

They are nice people. Met them in Singapore, on seperate occasions. Till then I have no idea they were once together. But somehow, I felt that they are very much competable and even once had the urge to "introduce". I'm never that KPO, neither would I talk about personal issues with them. But yeah, this urge was there.

As I got to know these 2 individuals better, only then did I realise they were divorcees. But they have something in common, a deep sense of regret. I shan't dwelt much into what this regret was because 1) I don't want to be KPO 2) I also dunno much... wahahahha.. I mean I can't describe this feeling. A very weird feeling. Perhaps weird is not the correct word but well, this uneducated soul here can't think of another word la...

I got to know of the full story just yesterday. Put simply, J and D divorced because a lack of communication. I think, you thought then a lot of assumptions. They are stubborn people. No room for negotiations( I know that, I got it from them before, work related stuff of course), you're wrong means you're wrong....

It was a torturous year for the two of them. Well, they kept finding out info about each other through mutual friends, putting up a tough front.. i.e. act tough... blah blah blah.. you know like some TV drama serial. Just like the Chinese saying, " the mouth says yes but the heart says no" and erm... "mouth is hard but the heart is soft"

And just like what Rockson would say, KNN....like that also can one ah....

But neh'mind la... all's well. You see I've received an sms informing me of their reunion. The funny part is that, this is the first time that a sms can actually make me feel a overwhelming sense of emotion.

Ok... I admit, I dropped a tear or two. Right.. I know I'm a WUSS.... a p**sy... whatever...doesn't matter to me la... as long as it's a happy ending.

Congrats (again)!
